Happy Birthday, Blake Shelton!

The country superstar turns 40 on Saturday, and we've got a feeling this just might be his best year ever! Between his red-hot career and even hotter girlfriend, Gwen Stefani, we can think of at least seven reasons why Blake is heading for a banner year.

7. Last, but not least: He's got a top-secret project "brewing." When ex-wife Miranda Lambert's Pink Pistol boutique shuttered its doors in Tishomingo, Oklahoma, Blake didn't hesitate in scooping up the vacant properties. "I was offered the opportunity to buy them, and I have a plan brewing," he teased in a statement.

And if we know Blake, we'd say there's a good chance that Tishomingo might find itself with a new Blake-approved watering hole in the near future.

One thing that doesn’t appear to be coming around next year? Another wedding! Gwen shut down engagement rumors surrounding her and Blake with a definitive "No, absolutely not!" in a recent interview. See for yourself in the video below.
